CHCH Spring/Summer 2024 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I might be wrong about this, but I think that this season might represent the longest interval between fall and spring that CHCH has used the same daytime schedule since it went retro in 2018. However, as March turns to April, there will finally be some changes coming. The first of these changes will happen in two weeks.

Like the song says, "The Love Boat" soon will be making another run at 1:00 pm starting next Tuesday March 19. The series will replace "I Dream Of Jeannie", which will be ending the day before, and "Hogan's Heroes". That show will move from 1:30 to 3:00 pm the next day and will replace "Silver Spoons" for a couple of months.

"Mad About You" will end one week later on March 28 as well as "The Dick Van Dyke Show" the week after that. Keep it here to find out what else is coming and going in the weeks ahead.

Actually, CHCH first went retro in the fall of 2017. It was not yet a 10-6pm retro lineup though.

It will almost be close to a calendar year since the Love Boat was yanked in early April 2023.

When I saw the commercials for the current remake of Dynasty, now we know why CHCH is showing the original Dynasty again.

As for Three's Company, I am seeing scenes (usually at the end of the episode) that I hadn't seen before even though I have seen reruns of TC so many times. The classic TV stations (which we usually pay extra for) were cutting scenes.

Good to know about CHCH airing uncut episodes of Three's Company.

The shows that have been airing the last few months just aren't my cup of tea, and at this point I don't have much hope things will get better.

Always keeping an eye out for new editions to the schedule.

KatieAnn · 03-14-2024, 05:33 PM

Good news at last! (at least for me)

NewsRadio replaces Mad About You at 5:30pm, starting on Thursday March 28.

Great show that CHCH said would be on the fall schedule last year. It's finally being added to the schedule!!

DEH55 · 03-19-2024, 01:30 PM

I am glad Silver Spoons and Mad about You will be gone. Couldn't stand either show. Once Suzanne Somers left Three's company it not the same for me. Not a fan of Priscilla Barnes. I wish they would get rid of Dynasty too.

Update: "The Dick Van Dyke Show" will be ending in two weeks and will be replaced by another outstanding series, "The Brady Bunch", beginning Tuesday, April 9 at 11:00 am after "Matlock" and before Danny Thomas.

Looks like The Odd Couple will begin airing next Wednesday after The Facts of Life finishes it's run. A welcome replacement! Glad to have The Odd Couple back on CHCH.

KatieAnn · 05-15-2024, 09:31 AM

That's good news - The Odd Couple is a funny show.

Looks like The Lucy Show is going to be replacing Hogan's Heroes at 3pm starting Tuesday May 28 and I believe that tomorrow we will see if CHCH will replace Matlock with another show or will just start Matlock from the beginning again.

CHCH loves Matlock. I have my guesses for what might replace it, but CHCH is unpredictable sometimes.

Sal · 05-15-2024, 10:04 PM

Thanks for the info. I very much appreciate it.

I think I'll try to take my own guesses as to what might replace Matlock in the morning. I'm going to go with either "The Andy Griffith Show" or "I Love Lucy" at 10:00 am and either "That Girl" or "The Partridge Family" (which would be perfect to show up before the Bradys) at 10:30 am. I'll check back in tomorrow and see how I did.

KatieAnn · 05-15-2024, 10:46 PM

Those are good guesses. I was thinking "I Love Lucy" and "The Andy Griffith Show." Or maybe "Green Acres" and "The Beverly Hillbillies." But "The Partridge Family" would be good before "The Brady Bunch."

If they replace "Matlock" with an hour long show - maybe "Charlie's Angels" or "Fantasy Island." "Bonanza" would be great.

Sal · 05-16-2024, 05:08 PM

I have just seen what will replace "Matlock" at 10:00 am and it seems very confusing to me so I will try to explain it as best as I can. On Thursday, May 30 (my birthday!), "The Dick Van Dyke Show" will return at 10:00 am, one hour earlier than when we last saw it around a month ago when it was replaced by "The Brady Bunch". At 10:30 am, CHCH will have...."The Lucy Show"???

That's right. After debuting a couple of days earlier in what you figure would be its regular 3:30 pm slot after "The Odd Couple" (a good choice), it will show up again at 10:30 am. You end up with back-to-back episodes 5 hours apart which is completely weird! To sum up, the new changes will look like this:

10:00 am Dick Van Dyke
10:30 Lucy Show

3:00 Odd Couple
3:30 Lucy Show

This was totally unexpected for me but at least Matlock is gone so that's great news!

KatieAnn · 05-16-2024, 05:50 PM

Matlock is not as bad as I used to think it was, and odds are it will be back before we know it, but it's good to have a break from it.

I would have bet that "I Love Lucy" would have made a return to the schedule at 10am, and I thought perhaps they'd move "The Lucy Show" to 10:30am for an hour of Lucy, and then put something else at 3pm, but another "Lucy Show" episode? It feels temporary, somehow. Why two episodes a day, but not back to back?

It's just too soon for a return of "The Dick Van Dyke Show." But the rest is not so bad.

Other shows will be ending their runs soon, & hopefully there will be good replacements for those shows.

Bizarre, but a welcome change from more Matlock.

DEH55 · 05-21-2024, 11:44 PM

I am glad The Facts Of Life is done. Once they left the school and moved to the store the show went downhill. How much time is left for Family Ties? I hope they bring The Partridge Family back or something new.

DEH55 · 05-22-2024, 10:06 AM

Isnt Hogan's Heroes ending soon too?
